The reporter learned from the National Health Commission on September 8 that the National Health Commission, the State Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and the National Administration for Disease Control and Prevention recently jointly issued the “Work Plan on Accelerating the Provision of High Quality and Efficient Eye Health Services”. The plan calls for focusing on key population groups and key eye diseases, improving the whole chain of anti-screening, diagnosis and treatment services, improving the eye health service system covering the entire life cycle, and providing fair, accessible, systematic, high-quality and efficient eye health services to the masses. The plan is clear. By 2030, the refractive screening rate for children aged 0 to 6 and primary and secondary school students will increase steadily. The rate of cataract surgery for one million people nationwide will exceed 4,000. More than 95% of counties can independently diagnose and treat common eye diseases, and all counties will be able to provide cataract surgery services.
